The invention provides a waterway switch switching valve, which comprises: valve body, main control valve core and waterway control valve core; the valve body comprises a water inlet channel, a first water outlet and a second water outlet, the number of waterway control valve core corresponds to the number of water outlets one by one, and is divided into the first and second waterway control valve core; the first waterway control valve core and the second waterway control valve core are respectively installed in the valve body; The valve body also comprises a first waterway arranged between the water inlet channel and the first waterway control valve core; and a second waterway between the first waterway control valve core and the second waterway control valve core; when the first waterway control valve core is opened, the first waterway control valve core connects the first waterway with the first water outlet; when the first waterway control valve core is closed, the first waterway control valve core connects the first waterway with the second waterway; when the second waterway control valve core is opened, the second waterway communicates with the second water outlet. The above waterway switch switching valve ensures that there is only one waterway discharge water at most.

A spool valve arrangement comprising a spool arranged for linear movement within a bore to regulate flow of fluid through the bore according to the linear position of the spool relative to the bore, the spool having an end arranged to be engaged, in use, by a drive member to cause the linear movement, the spool valve arrangement further comprising a sliding block component moveably attached to the spool end and arranged to engage with the drive member, in use, such that the drive member engages with the spool end via the sliding block component and the sliding block component moves relative to the spool to compensate for non-linear movement of the drive member.

Embodiments of the invention provide a piston assembly for a control valve in a water softener system. The control valve includes a drive mechanism, one or more fluid passageways, and a seal assembly. The piston assembly includes a main piston moveably received within the seal assembly and including a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, and a shuttle piston moveably received within the seal assembly. The shuttle piston includes a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, and is configured to selectively engage the second end of the main piston to form a seal therebetween and to selectively move relative to the second end of the main piston to form an opening between the second end of the main piston and the first end of the shuttle piston, in response to movement of the main piston.

A valve system includes a cam that has a shaft portion with an opening configured to receive a motor shaft, where the opening is off-center within the shaft portion. The system also includes a connecting rod assembly mounted to the shaft portion of the cam, where the connecting rod assembly includes a flexible one-piece connecting rod. The system further includes a valve mounted to an end of the flexible one-piece connecting rod such that rotation of cam results in translation of the valve.

A control valve assembly is provided for a fluid treatment system, including a housing having a top portion and a bottom portion secured to the top portion, the housing including an inlet and an outlet. At least two modular chambers are secured in the housing. A first chamber is configured to receive fluid from the inlet and a second chamber is configured to provide fluid to the outlet. A piston is also provided which includes a shaft with a plurality of sealing rings. The piston extends through the housing and through the first chamber and the second chamber. The piston is configured to reciprocate in an axial direction to control the flow of fluid in the control valve assembly.

A fluid switch-over device of the type that may be used in sanitary shower devices, the fluid switch-over device including a housing body which includes a fluid inlet channel and a plurality of fluid outlet channels arranged fluidically in parallel, a switch-over body which includes a fluid inlet, at least one fluid outlet and a fluid duct from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet and is disposed within the housing body to be translationally movable axially parallel and rotationally movable in a combined manner in relation to a longitudinal axis between at least two different operating positions. The switch-over body in each of the different operating positions is in fluid connection with the fluid inlet channel via its fluid inlet and differentially unblocks or blocks at least partially a fluid connection of its fluid outlet to the respective fluid outlet channel. An actuation unit for actuating the switch-over body includes an operating element disposed on the housing body to be user-operable.

The present disclosure provides a flow switch operated by a single button, including a switching device and an outlet device. The switching device includes a diverter member and a switching assembly. The switching assembly includes a fixing member, a sealing member and a linking rod. The diverter member has a passing through chamber. The fixing member has a first movable chamber and a linking rod channel. The sealing member has a second movable chamber. The linking rod has a blocking flange and a sealing portion. The sealing member is used to control an inlet condition of the passing through chamber and the first movable chamber. The sealing portion is used to control an inlet condition of the linking rod channel. The blocking flange and the second movable chamber are correspondingly moved to make the sealing member and the sealing portion to be operated continuously with each other.

Valve device consisting of at least one valve piston (1) which is arranged in a valve housing (3) in such a way as to be longitudinally movable along a movement axis (5) by an electric motor (23) and which at least partially connects or disconnects fluid connection points (P, A, B) in the valve housing (3) to or from each other, said valve device being characterized in that the drive axis (25) of the electric motor (23) intersects the movement axis (5) of the valve piston (1), runs through the top face (6) and/or the bottom face (8) of the valve housing (3), and is arranged in the valve housing (3) in such a way as to extend (10) parallel or at an angle to the fluid connection points (P, A, B).

A valve system includes a cam that has a shaft portion with an opening configured to receive a motor shaft, where the opening is off-center within the shaft portion. The system also includes a connecting rod assembly mounted to the shaft portion of the cam, where the connecting rod assembly includes a flexible one-piece connecting rod. The system further includes a valve mounted to an end of the flexible one-piece connecting rod such that rotation of cam results in translation of the valve.

A valve is provided for use with liquid chromatography where liquid is provided to the chromatographic analysis equipment at more than one pressure, including up to ultra-high pressures. High and higher pressure operation are provided by application of force by an internal spring while avoiding wear of components by permitting higher pressure operation by mechanical engagement of an internal element to cause the internal spring to increase the force applied to the rotor, without the addition of external additional loading in the high pressure operation.
